Is there such a thing as too many guards in Don Nelson's playing system?

I think so.

Currently we have 9 Guards overall on our roster (10 if you count Maggette as a swing-foward), about 5 of them are currently in the actual rotation.

I think we are going to have to trade one of them at least, to create a better balance of Fowards and Guards.

Personally, I would probably give up Maggette before any of the other players. I like Maggs, but the guy just doesn't bring the goods to the table for us and he's a viable trade tool. Sure he's probably THE BEST free-throw shooter on our team, as of now anyways. He isn't however showing us his elite ability to score. 19 ppg is great, but if you consider at the rate he's doing it. He's shooting a career low 41% fgp and 18% on threes. Injury prone galore. Not much of a leader, as Capt. Jack is, but he gets his silent assassin going once it's game time. 

Jackson is almost a carbon copy of Maggette statistics wise. He's a plays pretty horrible when forced into the point guard position. HAHA Not as good of a free throw shooter, but can still get to the line. He's actually shooting below his career AVG of 41% at 40% this year from the field. Jacking up almost 6 threes a game, while hitting at a 30% clip. VERY turnover prone, but I suspect that to change when Monta does come back. Career high in APG at 6.3, but again the TO kill that. One thing that puts him above Maggette in my eyes, is his leadership abilities, he sets a good example for the rooks (& we have plenty of them once again) and isn't afraid to take the last shot, even if he's more than likely going to miss. He is also the best starting 5 defender behind Biedrins.

Watson is okay at best. He doesn't play great defense average passer for a PG and low court-vision. He hustles and earns his PT though and that's what keeps him in the rotation.

Anthony Morrow, shows flashes of brilliance and a sweet stroke. He's among the top in the NBA in 3pt % at 48 and can start a fire when motivated. Nelson doesn't do a very good job encouraging players, but we ARE building for the future, per say. Morrow is a future 2 guard.

Buike? C'mon we can't let go of Kelenna. The hardest working of our Guards and the best rebounder outside of Maggette. Chooses better shots than Jackson and out-hustles opposing players. He can be a lockdown defender ... Kobe, anyone? Career high in ppg at 13.4, although his 3pt % has dropped to 33%, good ft shooter, yet lacks the ability of Maggette to draw fouls. NASTY dunker, ask Chris Kaman. Arguably the best of the guards on the defensive end.

Jamal Crawford, newest kid on the payground. I like him. He's a killer on the court and has a mindset to win. Does anyone recall his game winners like last year/year before?Exceptional ball handling ability, crossover please? He can pass like a 1 when need be, minus the turnovers AHEM* Mr. Jackson. Not much of a rebounder on an already horrible rebounding squad of ours. Low fg% at 41% ala' Stephen Jackson. Decent court vision. SCORER. Great ft% at 89% taking 6 per game with our squad.

Marco Belinelli. Great shooter and decent passer, as seen in the summer league. He can definitely shoot the lights out when he gets it going, problem is that he never does. Chokes in the game & doesn't deliver. I rooted for him in the summer league, but I just don't think he's ready for it yet.

The OTHERS

DeMarcus Nelson & Marcus Williams seem to have fallen out of Nellie's favor. I still want Marcus to play AT LEAST one game. DeMarcus on the other hand, had his moments early in the season, but drifted to the bench as time went on. 

So in your opinion which guard would you put up for adoption? We need a REAL 4, real fast. I know NONE of you will choose MONTA ELLIS, so I didn't bother putting him there. Hell, I wouldn't let him leave either.
